What Is a Craft Artist?

Craft artists create goods or artwork by hand for sale and exhibition. They utilize a variety of materials to make beautiful and functional pieces, such as glass blown vases, ceramic cookware, and knitted clothing. A craft artist may make original pieces from scratch, using fresh materials, or may modify products to make them more visually appealing. These products could include colorfully painted plant pots, embroidered towels, or personalized garden benches. Craft artists may work as independent sellers or in a small studio with several other artists. There are also opportunities for craft artists to work at large companies, where their duties are to design product lines based on craft styles. For example, a large manufacturer might contract a ceramicist to style a line of dishware.

What are craft artists?

Craft artists are professionals who create handmade objects, such as pottery, glassware, textiles, or jewelry, often using traditional methods and specialized tools. They blend artistic skill with technical expertise to design and produce items that are both functional and decorative. Craft artists may sell their creations at art fairs, galleries, or online platforms, and often work independently or in small studios. Their work typically involves a deep understanding of materials and techniques, as well as a strong sense of creativity and design.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Craft Artist, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Craft Artist, you need strong artistic ability, manual dexterity, and a good understanding of various craft techniques, often supported by a background in art or design. Familiarity with tools like sewing machines, pottery wheels, and design software, as well as knowledge of safety practices, is essential. Creativity, attention to detail, and self-motivation are standout soft skills for producing unique and high-quality work. These skills ensure that Craft Artists can consistently create appealing, marketable pieces and adapt to evolving trends in the arts and crafts industry.

How do craft artists typically collaborate with other professionals or teams on larger projects?

Craft artists often work closely with designers, curators, or other artists when participating in group exhibitions, public installations, or collaborative commissions. Communication and flexibility are essential, as they may need to adapt their techniques or materials to fit a shared vision. Collaboration can also involve working with marketing teams or gallery staff to present and promote their work effectively. These experiences not only broaden creative perspectives but also help build valuable professional networks.

What is the difference between Craft Artist vs Art Director?

AspectCraft ArtistArt Director
CredentialsTypically requires a high school diploma or associate degree; specialized training or certifications in craft techniquesBachelor's degree in design, fine arts, or related field; often with experience in creative roles
Work EnvironmentArt studios, craft workshops, galleriesAdvertising agencies, publishing houses, media companies
Industry UsageHandmade crafts, artisan products, small-scale productionVisual branding, advertising campaigns, media projects

Craft Artists focus on creating handmade or artisanal products, often working in studios or workshops. Art Directors oversee visual styles and creative projects across media, managing teams and budgets. While both roles involve creativity, Craft Artists are more hands-on with craft techniques, whereas Art Directors coordinate overall visual concepts for larger projects.

Job description

Filmmaker For Customer Stories

We're looking for a world class filmmaker who can both shoot and edit Ramp's Customer Stories. Your role will be to create new and innovative storytelling techniques that celebrate the people and businesses using Ramp to do extraordinary things.

Ramp's customer films are cinematic, character-led, and entertainment-first. They are not testimonials shot at a desk. You'll be expected to have a deep knowledge of every part of the filmmaking process, from influencing treatments, to having technical fluency with equipment and editing.

You partner with the Customer Marketing Lead and Creative Director on every project to actively break the mold of traditional B2B "customer stories." The CD owns the idea, the narrative, and the treatment. You own the camera, the cut, and the cinematic standard.

What You'll Do
  • Shoot and edit customer stories films in an entertaining and cinematic manner
  • Influencing pre-production phase and owning production phase including: pre-production (scouting, shot lists, pre-interviews), production (camera, lighting, direction on set), and post (rough cut through final delivery)
  • Build out Ramp's NYC equipment kit โ€” Ramp funds it; you spec, source, and own it
  • Pull social derivative cuts from every shoot so one production generates content across paid, organic, and sales
  • Communicate and liaise with cross functional partners to explain creative decisions and edits
What You Need
  • 5+ years of film production across a mix of commercial and documentary-style work
  • A self-shooter who owns the edit โ€” camera and post are both yours, not handed off
  • Character-driven work on your reel โ€” you can find the human story inside a business context
  • A background in indie filmmaking, post-production houses, or film-leaning production houses
  • Strong editorial eye โ€” you edit your own work and you know when a cut is done
  • Shipped social-cut formats โ€” you can pull a 30-second cut from a 5-minute doc without losing what makes it work
  • Understands how to draw out the value customers get with Ramp, whilst wrapping it in a compelling narrative.
  • Comfortable as the only person on a shoot; capable of directing a small crew (lighting, sound) when necessary
  • AI editing and post tools (Descript, Runway, Adobe AI)
  • Able to travel frequently for on-location shoots
  • Based in NYC (or SF and able to frequently travel)
Nice-to-Haves
  • Strong stills photography on your reel
  • Drone certification
  • Strong connections to the film-making industry e.g editors, sound, and lighting collaborators
  • Experience working alongside an in-house creative director and customer marketing lead
Benefits Available To All Full-Time Ramp Employees (Global)
  • Flexible PTO
  • Unlimited AI token usage
  • Centralized home-office equipment ordering
  • Health and wellness stipend
  • Budget for intra-office travel
  • Weekly coffee stipend
United States
  • 100% medical, dental & vision insurance coverage for you, with partial coverage for dependents
  • One Medical annual membership
  • 401(k), including employer match on contributions made while employed by Ramp
  • Fertility HRA (up to $10,000 per year)
  • Parental leave: up to 16 weeks (birthing + bonding) or 8 weeks (bonding only) at 100% pay
  • Pet insurance
  • In-office perks: lunch, snacks, drinks, and more
  • Relocation support to NYC or SF (as needed)
Canada
  • Group medical, dental, and vision coverage through Sun Life
  • Life, AD&D, and disability coverage
  • Fertility drug coverage (up to $4,000 lifetime)
  • Group Retirement Plan with employer match (RRSP + DPSP)
  • Parental leave: up to 16 weeks (birthing + bonding) or 8 weeks (bonding only) at 100% pay, with additional time available at reduced pay
  • Employee Assistance Program and virtual care through Lumino Health
United Kingdom
  • Private medical insurance through Freedom Elite
  • Virtual GP and at-home care via eMed x Livi
